The work has been commissioned by Mr Chris Ballam of The Land and Development Practice, 1 Horsefair, Wetherby, Leeds, LS22 6JG, on behalf on Yorkshire Aggregates Ltd. Planning permission has been sought from Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council for mineral extraction on the site. To inform the planning process, the results of an archaeological evaluation are required to accompany the planning application as set out in Archaeology and Planning (PPG16 1990). This report documents a non-invasive evaluation to determine the presence/absence, extent, character, quality and date of any archaeological remains that may be affected by the expansion of the quarry. This fieldwork was undertaken by Andrew Mundin Steve Ford and Jo Pine on the 17th October 2003. Location, topography and geology The quarry in situated on Wroot Road, which lies c.1km north-east of Finningley, to the east of Doncaster. The proposal site lies immediately to the east of the current quarry workings (Figs. 1 and 2). The site lies on a glacial outwash plain. The underlying geology is Older River Gravel (BGS 1969) and lies at c. 5m above Ordnance Datum. The site is mostly flat but there is a slight hollow to the ground in the south-eastern corner of the site. Archaeological background The archaeological potential of the site has been highlighted in a brief prepared by Mr Roy Sykes of South Yorkshire Archaeological Service following the results of an earlier desk-based assessment (Sidebottom 2003). In summary although there is no known archaeology on or immediately adjacent to the application area there are a variety of cropmarks and finds present in the general area. The topographic position of the site, which was formerly adjacent to an extensive wetland area, is one which was favoured for earlier prehistoric occupation. 1 Objectives and methodology The aim of the fieldwalking was to recover artefacts that pre-dated the 19th century, from the surface of ground. These finds can originate from either buried archaeological deposits, which have been disturbed by ploughing, or from material that was always within the topsoil. The fieldwalking took place along north–south lines spaced at 10m intervals and based on the National Grid. Material was collected from units of 10m intervals along these lines with an average search width of 1m. This approximated to a 10% sample of the site. The methodology is comparable with that practised in regions of central southern England (Richards 1990; Ford 1987a, appendix 1). A record was made of the conditions under which the fieldwalking took place, as results can be influenced by factors such as vegetation cover and weather. The topography was also recorded to assist in the interpretation of the finds. Results A total area of 5.4ha was fieldwalked by 3 individuals. Collection conditions All of the fieldwalked area had been ploughed recently but had weathered well; the sandy, stoney soil was easily washed by light rain. Very little vegetation was present and the ground was dry. For most of the fieldwork the weather was overcast, but on occasion was sunny. Areas to the south and west were very stoney with less stone towards the north. Finds Stuck Flint by Steve Ford Just three prehistoric struck flints were recovered. These had been introduced to the site, as flint was not obviously available within the local gravel. The pieces comprised two flakes and an oblique arrowhead. One flake was iron stained, the other flake was lightly patinated and the arrowhead was surprisingly fresh. It cannot be determined if these differences of condition reflect material from different periods or simply very localized variations in soil conditions. The two flakes are not closely datable other than to a broad span of time representing the Mesolithic to the late Bronze Age. 2 In contrast, the oblique arrowhead is typical of the later Neolithic (Green 1980). It was well made but both the tip and part of the barb are missing. Pottery In all 8 sherds where recovered in the fieldwalking. All the sherds date from late post-medieval to modern times. Their distribution is shown in Figure 3. Of minor note was a sherd from a stoneware ginger-beer bottle produced in Sheffield. Of the remaining sherds, two were post-medieval red ware, one with a manganese glaze and five were mass produced white, or blue and white, glazed china of 19th or 20th century date. Tile A single small fragment of tile (2g) was recovered. Clay pipe Two pieces of clay pipe stem were recovered from the fieldwalking. Conclusion The fieldwalking has produced a very modest quantity of finds from two distinct periods, prehistoric and late post-medieval times. The stuck flint is of a little archaeological interest, but is not necessarily of significance for the possible presence of subsoil archaeological deposits on the site. The arrowhead in particular is likely to have arrived on the site during a hunting expedition. As the local geology does not appear to be flint-rich, it is possible that even low densities of flintwork may represent the presence of occupation/activity sites, with flint usage being conservative. In such situations, it is often difficult to distinguish between stray finds such as casually lost or discarded items from activities taking place within the wider landscape, or small occupation sites. However in this instance the density of flint finds recovered is so low, despite 10% coverage of the surface area that they cannot be interpreted as representing prehistoric occupation. The pottery and clay pipe are distinct as being relatively recent additions to the fields and were presumably incorporated within manure spread onto arable fields. They are of no archaeological significance. On the basis of the results of this non-invasive evaluation, the site does not appear to have any archaeological potential. 3 References BGS, 1969, British Geological Survey, 1:63,360, Sheet 88, Drift Edition, Keyworth Ford, S, 1987, The East Berkshire Archaeological Survey, Berkshire County Council Dept Highways Planning Occas Pap 1, Reading Green, H S, 1980, The Flint Arrowheads of the British Isles, BAR 75, Oxford PPG 16, 1990, Archaeology and Planning, Dept of the Environment Planning Policy Guidance 16, HMSO Richards, J C, 1990, The Stonehenge environs project, English Heritage Archaeol Rep 16 London Sidebottom, P, 2003, ‘Archaeological desk-based assessment on land adjacent to Wroot Road Quarry, Finningley, South Yorkshire’, P C Sidebottom Archaeological Consultancy, Sheffield 4 05000 Doncaster Barnsley Sheffield Rotherham SITE 04000 03000 02000 01000 Quarry SITE SE67000 68000 69000 70000 WQD03/80 Wroot Road Quarry, Finningley, South Yorkshire, 2003 An Archaeological Fieldwalking Survey Figure 1.

Title: Response to the Coalfields Communities Campaign regarding the Finningley and Rossington Regeneration Route Scheme 4. Programme Area: Economic and Development Services/Chief Executive’s Office 5. Summary A request has been received from the Coalfield Communities Campaign asking for Rotherham’s views on the Finningley and Rossington Regeneration Route Scheme (FARRRS) in Doncaster. The report sets out the background and concludes that only qualified support can be given at this time. 6. Recommendations That: (a) the Council offer its qualified support to FARRRS for the reasons given in the report, and (b) a copy of this report is forwarded to Councillor S. Wright as Rotherham’s representative on the CCC. 7. Proposals and Details At the Coalfields Communities Campaign (CCC) meeting on the 21 January 2005, Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council (DMBC) asked for the support of CCC for DMBC’s efforts to secure funding and planning approval for the Finningley and Rossington Regeneration Routes Schemes (FARRRS). Members asked for more information before taking a view and a briefing note was subsequently issued by DMBC (attached at Appendix A). The FARRRS project will provide a link road from junction 3 of the M18 motorway into Rossington and on to the Robin Hood Doncaster Sheffield Airport. It aims to facilitate the regeneration of the south east area of Doncaster and in due course enable the airport to expand. The briefing note supplied by Doncaster lists the benefits of the road scheme to the coalfield communities as follows: • Improves and enhances the growth of the airport and its role as a transformation project which assists the economic restructuring of the sub- region including numerous coalfield communities.

One findspot is recorded within the buffer zone, a Bronze Age flint arrowhead. No listed buildings or Scheduled Monuments are recorded within the site or buffer zone. The Magnesian Limestone in South and West Yorkshire Aerial Photographic Mapping Project records levelled ridge and furrow remains within the buffer zone. The Historic Environment Characterisation records the present character of the site as modern commercial core- suburban, probably associated with the construction of Moorends mining village in the first half of the 20th century. There is no legibility of the former parliamentary enclosure in this area. In the western part of the buffer, the landscape character comprises land enclosed from commons and drained in 1825, with changes to the layout between 1851 and 1891 in association with the construction of a new warping system.
